I think the posts are still there. There is just something wrong with the search feature. It's broken. I asked about this awhile back but did not get much of an answer.

I think they're there also, but I can't search them either. If you enter a link to a post some will open, but that doesn't do much good for searching. Google doesn't find anything either when you search just Maast.org

I found this one by just typing in the topic number.

http://www.maast.org/index.php?name=PNphpBB2&file=viewtopic&t=3713&high light=

But if you search for the terms "I just got this Rose Anemone", Maast search returns only one different post from 2003.

It's all messed up. :unsure

If I search "cb pets" I get posts from 2002 and then it jumps to 2005. All of my posts from 2003 & 2004 are still there though.

It would be nice to get this fixed since many questions that are asked have been answered at length in the past. There have been many posts where I would have either cut & paste from one of my previous posts or just provided the link to answer a question. Instead, I give a short answer or none at all because I don't have time to type it all out again.

It took 7 & 1/2 hours to complete (mostly automated though, but still very time consuming) but i've rebuilt the search index which should allow some of those older posts to show up again.

Using Richards' test of "cb pets", I can confirm that i'm now seeing posts from 2002-2006 with 399 results shown.

Wow, thanks Chris! So tell me, did you do it at the bar with a "Little Help" from your co-workers ;)
